I chalk up the problems with the inventory to limitations of the time. RPGs from that era always had frustratingly small spaces and like items didn’t stack. It was a real problem with the first Dragon Quest and it’s something I’d like to think wouldn’t be an issue if they made the game now

That sounds like the way to go. Pirate whatever you can that just works and use the giftcard for boring important stuff

Does the card only work in the states? Could someone else buy the games with them and gift them to you?

SRV also had the trem flipped on his signature guitars so the arm was above the strings. He felt it gave jimmi an advantage because he could control it with the ball of his hand.

Their previous album, Timewave Zero, was all ambient synth. It’s perfect for what it is, two 20 minute songs that fit on a vinyl and the album art is sick

Easily my album of the year. I haven’t listened to an album and felt how good it is since The Work by Rivers of Nihil. I thought it was because I’m getting older but it’s good to know new music can still make me feel like that

A lot of commercially produced pop music is shit. I kind of see it like complaining you can’t get good food from McDonald’s when there are so many other options out there, but you need to find them yourself.

I am loving Absolute Elsewhere from Blood Incantation this year. That album goes from death metal to pink Floyd and back again.

Earlier in the year Lord Dying released an album that’s great too. Better Lovers has Greg Puciato from Dillinger and sounds like them in a good way. Tides From Nebular put out a great instrumental album, as did Kiko Loureiro, formerly of Megadeth. Same with Nock Johnston again in the instrumental guitar space.

A surprise one for me was Planetoid by Terrapath. They’re a small band and I came across them on a torrent website, loved the album so I picked it up on a band camp Friday.

Rivers of Nihil have singles out, so they’re teasing a new album I’m excited for.

And I just opened my music app to see Opeth, Distant, Body Count, Jinjer, Worm Shepherd, Gilipojazz, and First Fragment have all put out new music I haven’t listened to yet.

I like prog and death metal, but it will be the same in whatever genres you’re into. Dig a bit deeper and look into the sub-genres and you’ll find stuff you like there. No one is going to serve you good music on a silver platter

I’ve started by adding some more key bindings so my hand doesn’t cramp from sliding everywhere, the arms have dedicated buttons instead of alternating, and I’ve mapped the Last Used button so I can switch between guns faster

I got recommended this on YouTube because I played Pseudoregalia. I do appreciate the thiccness slider and the caked up tauriel at the start

Looks like it didn’t fill enough people with determination

If Fortnite Goku endorsed Kamala she’d win every state in Brazil

You can tell this is just a bunch of sick riffs they had lying around they threw together into a song. It’s up there with Frankenstein by the Edgar Winter Group

You can build Minecraft servers in Rust? You can really make anything in that game

Native PC versions when?

This came up in my YouTube feed too. What does that say about us?

This is cool. I just showed my girlfriend Green Lung today. I guess British Ghost are some pretty cool dudes

Half Life 2 can be as great as it is and the AI is still underrated. Games of the era like FEAR and Far Cry get lauded for their AI but Half Life 2 is just as good, if not better

The lyrics in this song are so cheesy but this is a hard one to play

That’s Unreal 2.5 for ya. Honestly such a classic time, and that bump mapping. Has anyone made a game throwing back to this aesthetic?

Those B-movie RPGs from Europe like Two Worlds: II and Gothic. They come so close to being good and have their own quirks.

Another is Indie boomer shooters and mods for the classics like the my house wad. But that could be me because boomer shooters are my favourite kinds of games
